How to change DB9 speedometer from kilos to miles?

Battery died and when finally restarted, the speedo (not the odometer) changed from mph to kmh. Can this be changed back easily?

That's exactly what I thought!! I looked down when I was on the freeway and was shocked by how fast the flow of traffic was.

Notice that nobody has come up with an answer, it might be worth you trying on PistonHeads, http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/f...f=70&mid=17856

Rick runs an independent in UK and is very knowledgeable and very helpful, if he sees your post I'm sure he will try to help

The digital readout in the tacho can be altered very easily:

Press & hold the "Read" button & the left stalk button simultaneously to flip between km to miles.

Hope that's what your after.

Cheers

Correct information

If you hold the ‘Read’ button and press the end of the left hand stalk at the same time holding for a few seconds it will change to MPH.
